+1 vote reasons are increasingly feeling less nounish to me.
No shade on those using them. Just feels a little cliquey. Somewhat of a ganging up vibe. “This person has said THE reason”. Which in some cases probably makes sense. Just a vibe I get when reading, thought I’d share.
I’ve prob done it myself too 😅

question to ask tho is would you prefer a no reason vote over a +1 vote?

None specific, but I’ve noticed it a few times and seems to be getting more prevalent. Totally understand doing it if in agreement with someone else’s reason and saving time for sure. But I can’t help but notice the way it might make people/proposers feel.

referring to my vote on nftr and follow on vwrs? if so, i agree it doesn't look great. otoh, i do it all the time because it makes it easy to vote without having to rewrite a reason.

The only problem is externality pricing.

What are cases where it's useful to have people write reasons why they are agreeing with something? Is it ever useful?

I was referring to when a vote reason is "+1" to someone else's vote reason.
It saves time if you agree with someone else and have nothing else to say. But I just thought about how it might not feel great as a proposer to have people all agreeing with one reason... in saying that, it is also a signal on what to change.

Like the reasons they're giving aren't as good as they used to be?
